Surgery!

This time on my nosy nose.
Many might feel it is about time.
But in reality they would definitely be absolutely correct!
Although, my proboscis has never ever been considered large, it has had many other issues that have culminated in this final outcome calling for surgical intervention.
Breathing problems and sinusitis, might prevent sleep apnea, a symptom causing snoring, could have been as well as an old injury from being hit in it by either a ball or some other item of pain causing material, perhaps an elbow, who remembers, really, all at one time or another, causing my septum to now be deviated, sounds sort of dirty, but not really, it means crooked!
More runny than dirty truly. 
And this latest causal effect of infection, headache, face-ache, and low grade fevers, etc. all in that region; could even be my eyeball pain, but that is for the eye doc to determine who I will be seeing too. 
ENT doc has me going in for pre-testing this week with surgery the day after.
Fast and furious, nothing like taking the bull by the horns to finally SOLVING THE PROBLEM, I do hope so.
Going into the hospital as an outpatient that is good, whole shebang will take about five hours I have been told for this very common surgery.
No blowing the nose or sneezing out of it for days after, since it will be on nose rest, really!
 My eyes should not be black, but my nose will be possibly packed with gauze or not and may appear bruised.
So many possibilities...
I will be under anesthesia, and had to give up baby aspirin and fish pill due to their bleeding problems as blood thinners, all the rest my legal drugs are fine.
On an anti-biotic now and after too.

So that's what up and my head is being iced as I write this evening and so as many may guess I am anxious to feel better real soon, and allow me now to wish all of you a very good night and ask you all to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know whom and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear! 

PS all this is being done after steroid spray and over the counter sinus medication and saline sprays for over a year, and after two MRIs showed the problem significantly on them.
